A 42-year-old male veteran presented with severe sternal pain from a sternotomy for an intrathoracic tumor fifteen years ago. As a result, he suffered from allodynia, or nerve-related skin sensitivity, causing extreme pain. The patient failed opioid therapy. An ultrasound-guided pecto-intercostal nerve block was the next step in his pain management. The Envision gel-free ultrasound pad was used as a viral barrier for the intervention.
